Good News and…

Chicago, IL: It seems you can't go three blocks in Chicago without seeing a Starbucks but we all have our favorites. Recently "mine" closed. Shock! The good news is it didn't really close. It just moved two blocks north. The better news is they serve wine in the evening!

A Starbucks serving wine!!!!! So they're extending their range from keeping people buzzed during the day to mellowing them out in the evening. The bottles and silhouetted people sketch really captures the mood.
